Reels Blocker

You didn't open Instagram to watch forty videos. You opened it to check one thing.

Reels Blocker closes that trapdoor. The moment a short-video player opens, it takes
you straight back out — before the first video finishes loading. Your feed, your
messages, your search all keep working exactly as before. Only the endless scroll
goes away.

WHAT IT BLOCKS

• Instagram Reels — returns you to your feed
• YouTube Shorts — returns you to Home
• Facebook Reels — leaves the Reels viewer and the Reels tab
• TikTok — closes the app entirely, because TikTok is nothing but short video

Each app has its own switch. Block all four, or just the one that keeps eating
your evening.

HOW IT WORKS

Reels Blocker watches for the moment a short-video player appears on screen, then
uses that app's own navigation to leave it — tapping the Home or Feed tab, or
pressing Back. There's no forced restart, no crash, no jarring interruption. It
feels like you simply changed your mind.

It's not a willpower app. There's nothing to configure, no streak to maintain, no
guilt screen. You turn it on once and forget it exists.

FREE, WITH AN AD-FREE UPGRADE

Reels Blocker is free, and every blocking feature stays free — the free version is
supported by ads. Reels Blocker Pro removes all ads, available as a weekly,
monthly or yearly subscription. Subscriptions renew automatically and can be
cancelled any time in Google Play.

YOUR SCREEN STAYS YOURS

• No accounts. No sign-up. No email required.
• We run no servers and collect nothing about you ourselves.
• What the blocker sees on your screen is read in memory only, never saved and
never transmitted — in the free version just as much as in Pro.

Ads in the free version are served by Google AdMob, which may use your device's
advertising ID to choose which ads to show. That is completely separate from the
blocking feature: your screen content is never shared with advertisers, with us,
or with anyone else.

ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE DISCLOSURE

Reels Blocker uses Android's Accessibility Service, and only for this: to detect
when a short-video player is open in the apps you have chosen, and to navigate
away from it. It reads screen content in memory solely to recognise those players.
It does not record your screen, read your messages or passwords, or collect any
data. Nothing it reads leaves your device. You can turn the service off at any
time in Android Settings.

GOOD TO KNOW

• Android's accessibility permission must be granted for blocking to work — the
app walks you through it.
• Blocking begins the instant you grant it. Nothing else to set up.
• Works with each app's normal updates.
